Machine Learning in Forensic Evidence Examination (inbunden, eng)

The availability of machine learning algorithms, and the immense computational power required to develop robust models with high accuracy, has driven researchers to conduct extensive studies in forensic science, particularly in the identification and examination of evidence found at crime scenes.

Machine Learning in Forensic Evidence Examination discusses methodologies for the application of machine learning to the field of forensic science.

Evidence analysis is the cornerstone of forensic investigations, examined for either classification or individualization based on distinct characteristics.

Artificial intelligence offers a powerful advantage by efficiently processing large datasets with multiple features, enhancing accuracy and speed in forensic analysis to potentially mitigate human errors. Algorithms have the potential to identify patterns and features in evidences such as firearms, explosives, trace evidences, narcotics, body fluids etc.

and cataloged them in various databases. Additionally, they can be useful in reconstruction and detection of complex events, such as accidents and crimes, both during and after event. This book provides readers with consolidated research data on the potential applications and use of machine learning for analyzing various types of evidence.

Chapters focus on different methodologies of machine learning applied in different domains of forensic sciences such as biology, serology, physical sciences, fingerprints, trace evidences, ballistics, anthropology, odontology, digital forensics, chemistry, toxicology as well as the potential use of big data analytics in forensic.

Exploring recent advancements in machine learning, coverage also addresses the challenges faced by experts during routine examinations and how machine learning can help overcome these challenges, and explore recent advancements in machine learning.

Machine Learning in Forensic Evidence Examination is a valuable resource for academics, forensic scientists, legal professionals, and those working on investigations and analysis within the law enforcement agencies.
